A security administrator wants to integrate a third-party system with Check Point to send identity data using a REST API.
Which identity source should be used?
Correct Answer: A
The correct answer is A. Identity Web API is the Identity Awareness method used when a third-party system needs to create or send identity data to Check Point using a web/API-based method. It gives flexible identity integration for systems that are not covered cleanly by AD Query, RADIUS Accounting, or Identity Collector. Option B is wrong because Identity Collector collects identities from supported infrastructure sources such as Active Directory domain controllers, Cisco ISE, NetIQ eDirectory, and Syslog sources. Option C is wrong because RADIUS Accounting consumes RADIUS accounting messages from network access infrastructure. Option D is wrong because AD Query learns identity information from Microsoft Active Directory events. The phrase "REST API" is decisive: API- based identity creation points to Identity Web API.
